Red Sauce for Pizza image

The only trick to this uncooked sauce is finding good canned tomatoes: If you can't find Jersey Fresh, look for ones from California, New Jersey, or Italy-the only ingredients should be tomatoes and salt.

Yield Makes about 3 1/2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 garlic cloves, finely grated
1 (28-ounce) can crushed tomatoes
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 1/2 teaspoons fine sea salt

Steps:

  • Whisk garlic, tomatoes, oil, and salt in a medium bowl. Don't be tempted to add more salt; the flavor will concentrate when sauce is baked with pizza. Cover and chill 3 hours to let flavors come together before using.
  • Do Ahead
  • Sauce can be made 1 week ahead. Keep chilled.
